Danae: I came up with a mantra that'll bring me outer peace. Ned: Um...shouldn't it bring you inner peace? Danae: Well, mine does both. Getting people out there to shut up and leave me alone brings inner peace. Ned: Ok...let's hear it. Danae: Stuff happens, get over it. Heh heh heh Ned: Was the "heh-heh-heh" part of the mantra? Kate: I'm guessing it means she's figured out a way to weaponize it.

Danae would never used profanity – especially in front of Dad.
" Stuff happens " is perfectly acceptable, although I prefer " Deep do-do occurs ! "

I usually say “Life happens,” though occasionally I’ll use “Feces transpires.” Waste products are one of the unavoidable consequences of life.

No deep thoughts or politics implied or considered…That’s too petty for her….The little people don’t matter…It’s just “My Way -Forever”…A very comforting thought and rule to live by….
